Each player commands a set of six coins, working to move them along a shared path and bear them all off the board before the opponent does. The journey begins outside the board at each player's home, and pieces are set in motion — or sent home in defeat — by the throw of \u003cstrong\u003ewooden cowries\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEvery throw is a small drama. Land on a one, five, six, or twelve and you earn another turn; land on an opponent's coin and send it all the way back to the start — and get another go. But safe squares offer refuge, and the inner stem of the board can only be entered once blood has been drawn. The result is a game of constant tension, calculated risk, and satisfying reversals that keeps both players on edge until the very last piece is borne off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis edition is rendered in the ancient art of \u003cstrong\u003eKalamkari\u003c\/strong\u003e — a hand-painted tradition from South India where natural dyes and fine brushwork bring mythological and floral motifs to life on fabric. Each board carries the unmistakable character of this centuries-old craft, making it as beautiful to display as it is to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe first player to bear off all six coins wins. Each set includes the \u003cstrong\u003egame board\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e12 coins (2 sets of 6)\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003e6 wooden cowries\u003c\/strong\u003e.
